News: 4 days agoHenry recorded eight receptions on 12 targets for 109 yards in Sunday's 23-20 overtime loss to the Seahawks.

Spin: Henry was the clear favorite target for Jacoby Brissett, as no other player was targeted more than five times nor surpassed 12 yards. He worked primarily in the short areas of the field but did rack up yards after the catch to tally long gains of 35 and 17 yards. The Patriots have played conservatively on offense through two games, so it may be difficult for Henry to replicate this performance regularly.

ESPN Fantasy Projection: Hunter Henry enters his fourth season with the Patriots. Last season, he caught 42 of 61 targets and averaged 8.5 fantasy points per game. Henry's fantasy numbers were largely inflated by his six touchdowns. Although Mike Gesicki is no longer on the team, New England brought in Austin Hooper. Henry figures to settle in third or fourth on the team in targets in an offense that figures to deal with some growing pains with rookie QB Drake Maye under center. Henry is best viewed as a low-end TE2.
